A TERROR FOR SHARP.
Doodle Clerk Maloney Reported Return
ing to New York to Confess.

Doodle Clerk MalOney Reported Return
ing to New York to Confess.
New YORK, June 12.-Tbere is some
reason to believe that the crOwning sur
prise of the bribery trials is to come in the
shape of a confession from the noted Billy
Maloney, the exiled reading clerk Of the
doodle Board of Aldermen and the sup
posed distributor OF the bribes. MalOney,
it is said has agreed to take the stand in
the pending trial of Jacob Sharp and tell
the story of the Broadway franchise.
Whether he will or not no one outside OF
the District Attorneys office can tell, and
inquiries of Mr.. MARITIME or his assistants
do not bring out any definite information
1t is said that he has been promised i'm
munity if he will testify.
Judge Barrett was asked tonight by a
reporter how much truth he thought there
was in the rumOr of MOlOney's return and
he pronounced it absurd. Peter Mitchell,
of counsel for Sharp, said they would like
to have him back, if he would tell the
truth, and several politicians, once the in
innate friends of the willy Billy, declared
that he was not the kind of a man to turn
intOrmer Nevertheless, the story has
caused stir among Sharp'S lawyers and
the untried aldermen, and there is a feel
ing that there is some truth IN the state
mcnt. Judge Nelson, one of Sharp 5
lawyers, is thought to he the source of
the information and this fact gives the
more weight On the other hand
it is known that MalOney
has rented cottage for his family just on
the other side of the st. Lawrence and that
they have Joined him there to spend the
summer. He has plenty of money, for be
sides hls liquor interests here he owns sew
eral houses. He is able, therefore, to live
in Canada rs long as he chooses so far rs
his income is concerned He has told two
or three of his friends, who have seen him
in Montreal, that he is tired oil being away
from home, hut ne has always stOutly
maintained that he would not come back
to sacrifice the "boyS,' as he called the
aldermen 1t remains to be seen whether
he has wavered in that determination or
whether Assistant District Attorney NicOll
has been going on iruitlcss missions to
Canada during the past two months.
